A playable race from the popular MMORPG World of Warcraft. The Tauren are a species of anthropomorphic cattle, with two fingers and a thumb on each hand and hooves on their feet. They live in the prairie canyon region of Mulgore, and are very spiritual people, worshipping the Earth Mother, a representation of nature (who may or may not be the Night Elf goddess Elune). They are aligned with the Horde faction, making them (for example) friendly to Orcs but hostile to Humans.
